#

safe grail
#

neon lynx
#

shut brook
#

Is there any reason not to cast Runic Invocation when the runes fill up (aside for mana)? Do the runes themselves provide any passive benefit?

atomic heart
#

i prefer the body with exatled int tbh

neon lynx
safe grail

how do u sustain mana, @neon lynx ? without mana regen in belt

#

mana strike?

neon lynx
#

mountain boots

atomic heart
#

oh i see

neon lynx
#

-6 mana cost for bosses while u stands still

#

makes me mana positive for bosses

atomic heart
#

thats a good one too. right now im trying blood of exile

#

for maps

neon lynx
#

yeah maps i dont have any sustain problems

#

its just on bosses that i was struggling

safe grail
#

yeah this build lookin spicy

#

nice Dep.

neon lynx
#

its working pretty well

#

im looking forward to running into a wall lol

safe grail
#

lmao

atomic heart
#

im right now farming the twisted and strand souls, then im gonna try the beastmaster Krip build lol

#

that look awesome single target

neon lynx
#

good luck on the belt

neon lynx
#

took me till 500 corrupt to drop a good one lol

safe grail
#

brb

neon lynx
#

and it had no LP

#

🤣

atomic heart
#

strand? i have the worst rng possible

neon lynx
#

yeah

atomic heart
#

i dont have any...even with 0 lp XD

neon lynx
#

idk how people get so many hearts

atomic heart
#

my drops are all Minion stuff.. hate my rng

neon lynx
#

i farmed dragons to 1k on my lock and at 400 now on RM and have seen 1 LP1 drop lol

atomic heart
#

and still missed the fusion right? haha

#

thats how its

neon lynx
#

yep

#

its got frality on it instead of t7 claw

#

lol

atomic heart
#

its crazy how LB builds are izier and stronger than frost claw

#

u dont need much stuff and ure just a beast with damage and tanky

neon lynx
#

mm idk if theyre better

bronze shore
#

bro the game just wont drop my temporal key

atomic heart
#

can u share ur planner? @neon lynx want to compare some things like passives

neon lynx
#

its like 20 posts up

atomic heart
#

ok

neon lynx
#

i think im gonna try dropping nova

#

and throwing on an exalt chest

#

see how this goes

atomic heart
#

i didnt like how polluted is the screen with nova and dont think it makes that much difference in damage

#

it feels more "visual impact" than actually much more clear

neon lynx
#

its a lot of clear and extra spark charges

#

but i want to see if its actually a big diff or not

atomic heart
#

ye, for spark charges i agrre

neon lynx
#

no nova also frees up 4 points in claw

#

so maybe can try diff boots until i get the heart slam lol

atomic heart
#

did u feel that unstable core actually impacted on the are in elemental nova? ( abou the area effect)

neon lynx
#

no

#

it was just for the +skills

atomic heart
#

hm i see, thats what i tought

neon lynx
#

u have to directly cast nova for the chest to even do anything lol

atomic heart
#

its clunky right?

#

haha

neon lynx
#

awh man i cant post pics

#

i had a nice exalt chest just waiting to be tried lol

atomic heart
#

damn, 2 julra with t6+ int...hate u

neon lynx
#

xd

#

150 int now with the chest swap

deft gust
#

ok is anyone running the frost claw/elemental nova on runemaster

#

can someone send a build guide?

small aurora
#

im doing a frost claw + ele nova + ice barrage combo

atomic heart
#

frostbite, humble?

deft gust
#

I am using it with cold rn

#

though i got this dagger that lets me make it electric

#

which looks like it could be good

small aurora
#

yeah frostbiteg

deft gust
#

what should i swap ice barrage out for if i switch the build

small aurora
#

to specialize in?

#

i think a lot of people take flame ward, i took that out

deft gust
#

hmmm

small aurora
#

not off my bar but as a specialization

atomic heart
#

flameward to me is kinda op

deft gust
#

ah

atomic heart
#

if u dont have it

deft gust
#

i see

#

i have a level 68 runemaster who ive been running as an ice guy

#

but i wanna see if i can make him do more dmg

#

with maybe the lightning knife

#

i got 3 with 1lp

atomic heart
#

if u need to farm stuff i would recommend Lb tbh

#

its kinda op and doesnt require much to be efficient

deft gust
#

what are the bare mimimum for the build

#

mininmu

#

mininum

#

least

#

what do i need to make it work at mimimum

atomic heart
#

well, i would recommend enigma and some sceptre with t7 int/cast speed or mad alchemist laddle (imo)

#

thats what i was running to 200-250 corruption

#

0 lp

deft gust
#

I did happen to get a mad alchemist ladle

atomic heart
deft gust
#

are u using frost claw with the dagger or are u just making a lightning runemaster

neon lynx
#

damage is pretty mid without ele nova @atomic heart lol

#

goin back tohaving it

atomic heart
atomic heart
deft gust
#

so ladle requires less gear to work?

atomic heart
#

i wish that we had something that procs fireballs haha
saw some stuff that convert it to lightning

atomic heart
#

(sry my english isnt that good)

#

the laddle with enigma u already have all u need to be strong as LB lol (to 200-250 corrupt)

deft gust
#

what is LB?

atomic heart
#

Lightning Blast build

deft gust
#

ah

#

ok

#

im trying to use the lightning dagger with frost claw

atomic heart
#

its pretty easy and strong to play

deft gust
#

is it worth pursuing or nah?

neon lynx
broken sinew
#

gg boys reached 1000 corruption on my runemaster

atomic heart
deft gust
#

howso? like getting all the items, or the gameplay?

atomic heart
atomic heart
#

that changes all u gonna use on ur build depending on what u want

ripe mortar
#

I'm on the lv 85 monolyth boss and my flame rush keeps bugging on my hydra char. Any way to fix this? this fight is impossible if my main ability dont work...

deft gust
#

I have only used teleport so far and stuff

deft gust
ripe mortar
# digital oar how is it bugging?

I hold the flame rush down, and it instant pops, barely moving me and not giving me 2 fire runes. This is pretty common isnt it? I get it all the time...

neon lynx
#

build def isnt starter friendly

deft gust
#

hmm ok

#

so maybe i stick with ice

neon lynx
#

would suggest plasma orb or frostclaw to get started

deft gust
#

for now at least

neon lynx
#

then maybe switch over once u have a bunch of the pieces together

deft gust
#

I am using frost claw currenlty

#

with ice nova and barrage

neon lynx
#

bare minimum to function would be dagger chest catalyst and boots

#

then surivivability feels really bad without the relic rings and belt

deft gust
#

without any special ward pieces or anything i sit around 5k and have decent res in all categories (90+)

#

the dmg on my current build feels pretty low tho

#

not sure how i can share it with you the way you did up there

#

but i would be open to any suggestions

neon lynx
#

go to lastepochtools

#

then builder

#

and theres an option to import ur character

deft gust
#

hmm

atomic heart
#

i wouldnt recommend the dagger build wihtout at least the dagger, catalyst and relic

#

( im running without the belt and relic and already feels squishy)

neon lynx
#

if you do a wand spark/claw build

#

the only real thing u need is the offhand

#

thats what i started with

deft gust
#

hmm ok

neon lynx
#

skip the dagger and lightning blast and it makes it much easier to sustain

#

dont need the chest or boots

deft gust
#

where is builder in lastepochtools?

neon lynx
#

7th tab over in the top

deft gust
#

ok 1 sec

neon lynx
#

if i could post pics in here id show you 😠

#

damn, right now im regretting not be in the merchant guild and just buy twisted hearts XD

really?

huh

neon lynx

you dont have enough base spell damage for the % more to actually be good

#

yeah

deft gust
#

aah i see

neon lynx
#

look at the base spell damage of it

#

compared to an exalt wand lol

deft gust
#

i see

#

that makes sense

Got a couple questions regarding mage skills:

  1. What are the options to convert Meteor to elements other than fire? Skill tree has nothing and I found Vilatria set that does convert it to lightning. Is there anything else?
  2. Is Arcane Ascendance Multiplicative? It's not stated in the skill itself and if not, skill is extremely useless when I'm already rocking hundreds of % damage increases, including Spell Damage specifically.
  3. Are there any item modifications to Focus Skill? I'd love for it to, let's say, keep defensive bonuses for a moment after skill is released.
atomic heart
#

i woudlnt change meteor to lightning ...u gonna struggle to mix with other good skills

terse igloo
#

I didn't say I want to. I'm asking what are all the options.

atomic heart
#

oh sorry

lethal jolt
#

anyone care to help boost a spare mage for me? it'd be a huge help. currently playing with a friend but they got off for the night, i fell in love with the build but what to save the character for playing with them. i'd appreciate it

woeful geyser

yo does any1 got a competetive and fun build recomendation for runemaster? ive already tried plasma orb, frostbite frost claw and lightning blast

wide inlet
#

has anyone got a link to a mage levelling loot filter?

deft gust
#

where do you get the frostbite for frost claw?

#

my current build doesnt really proc it much?

i dont nessecary mean spamy is bad, plasma orb is really fun cuz it requres a little bit of skill but the reward is you cast few orbs and just teleport around and everything dies, frostlaw builds are usually insane ward generation but you kinda need to stand in place and cast frostclaw for long time, not that engaging gameplay for me, gimme sec ill check the build you send me

deft gust
#

can plasma orb go into endgame?

and I haven't even mentioned the option of going Reowyn's Frostguard, which would just give you 30% damage reduction at all times for no effort

guys quick question for the twisted heart...do i need both 8% current healt coverted to ward or just any number will be good for a build?thanks

ah ok

#

i just assumed cuz i thought it was a skill on the sorcerer tree

prisma patio
#

Very common for RM to take 10-20 or more points in sorc. It has some very good passives at the beginning.

proper hawk
# terse igloo That too. Roughly 1000 mana ultimately.

yeah, I looked at the video, I am really not convinced. A RM can get 2/3rds of archmage with a single passive point in Runeword: Avalanche lmao. The most compelling thing about Sorc for that build is the +50 flat mana that Sorc gets by default, since you have to push mana pretty hard to get lost knowledge and mana refund going.

terse igloo
#

Simple version: I go for Sorc when I want to play big spells, I go for Runemaster for spammy ones.

proper hawk
prisma patio
#

Avalnche gives 6, archmage gives 15, not quite 2/3rds

proper hawk

Oh is planner out of date?

proper hawk

That's what I'm on, it says +6

proper hawk
#

thats what im on, it says +10 lmao

#

Are you on PC or mobile?

proper hawk
#

PC

#

are you set to an older patch? if you opened an older build that can happen

prisma patio
#

That might be it then, I'm on mobile. Maybe the mobile site is still out of date.

#

Or that maybe.

#

Yeah it's 10 if I just go to the planner fresh, must be an older patch. Wild

proper hawk

Probably yeah

#

Good to know that can happen

Finally got the mad alchemist's ladle!! Even a 1lp version... Now back to farming the heart

ill drop like 20 or so ascendance and see how it goes

unborn hamlet
#

getting kind of ***d sideways on frostbite shackles

#

i killed the lich over 100 times and only got 2 drops

#

no LP

wet patio
#

ouch. i switched off frostclaw before the shackle farm but it was next on my list

unborn hamlet
#

i think i might just give up and go farm for 3LP snowdrifts or frozen ire instead

#

cos that will literally be easier

prime fable
unborn hamlet
#

am on CoF

#

:sadge.

wet patio
#

yea i was able to get like 5 or 6 ire's, 2 with 1 lp

unborn hamlet
#

im rank 10, with all multiplicative lenses

#

i have a full stash of 2LP ires

#

no 3LP so far

#

but i feel it in my bones

prime fable
#

rip. i dont need it and i only picked it up bc i remember u crying about it for 2 days lmao

wet patio
#

i finally got a tier 7 mana reduction scepter too just sitting in my stash collecting dust

unborn hamlet
#

oh shut it

prime fable
unborn hamlet
#

depends on the items u got

#

like yeah any 4LP will be expensive on MG

#

but some of em are really not THAT rare

prime fable
#

reowyns fortress 4lp i dont need it rn

unborn hamlet
#

thats huge

#

i have 2 3lp ones

#

dont have use either

#

1 is even perfect rolled 😂

prime fable
#

yh but it doesnt work on my build i might use it on my next character

unborn hamlet
#

i should have made my stash account wide

#

welp, gotta learn for next cycle

#

for this one im just gonna push this as far as i can

#
  • i have fun, thats all that matters
prime fable
wet patio
#

im curious to see how this pinnacle content turns out

unborn hamlet
#

i was watching the Dev stream earlier, and someone asked if they gonna buff CoF for some boss drops or boss prophecies

#

and they said most likely not

#

i wanted to slap him ngl

#

smh

#

CoF was a mistake

prime fable
wet patio
#

yea i dont see why not honestly. merchants guild can just farm gold and buy high lp items

swift stream
#

I wish ssf could still party with other ssf players just not trade

unborn hamlet
#

like make the whole point of CoF is to get rich for yourself

#

and then u deny a perk that would make the insuferable boss farm easier?

#

i worded that wrong

#

the point is to make yourself strong by your own hands

#

i guess sounds better

#

based on my calcs of luck , and i didnt actually look up the drop chance

#

twisted heart is about a 30% drop chance

#

and shackles below 5%

wet patio
#

i think they should drop the whole set dropping non sense at rank 9 and make it have a high chance for double exalted with a small chance for triple exalted or something along those lines

unborn hamlet
#

and both of em have 10% chance to drop 1LP. and 1% or below for more

wet patio
#

unless they plan on actually making set gear worth wearing

wet patio
#

yea i dont get that at all

unborn hamlet
#

but at least they said they will see to change/buff it

wet patio
#

sets have never been good

unborn hamlet
#

like its the perfect place for something like u said

#

or add that

wet patio
#

i only assume it's there before i know they want to redo sets eventually

unborn hamlet
#

´´triple the chance for boss specific loot´´

neon lynx
#

^

#

cof needs it

wet patio
#

thats a good one too

neon lynx
#

if it doesnt change before next cycle i have to go trade

#

just because getting any LP boss drop is complete aids in COF

unborn hamlet
#

same, ill just suffer the bad filtering system

#

and get a mule someone here to play with , so we can power level each other

neon lynx
#

like my entire build is struggling right now

#

cuz im missing an LP heart

unborn hamlet
#

:worrypat:

neon lynx
#

even though ive been up to 1k corruption in dragons on 1 character, and now 500 on another

unborn hamlet
#

been there

neon lynx
#

and only dropped 1 lp1 heart

#

that immediately bricked lol

unborn hamlet
#

same

#

but i got lucky on my slam

#

11 drops before 1 that had LP

#

and 1LP too

#

my current plan is just farm Lich for shackles till i go insane

neon lynx
#

its just goofy

unborn hamlet
#

and once i have few hundred K of favor

neon lynx
#

took me to 500 corrupt before i dropped a single lp0 strand too

unborn hamlet
#

roll for Ire

neon lynx
#

like ?????????

unborn hamlet
#

spend it all

#

i got lucky in some wrong places

#

i have 2LP Omnis.... from 250corruption monolith

neon lynx
#

rank 9 cof passive > boss uniques are now part of your regular unique table and can be dropped everywhere

wet patio
#

i have never seen an omni

neon lynx
#

havent seen a single omni yet

#

LOL

unborn hamlet
#

what is it

#

1% chance drop from shade

#

and then 2LP is 0.068%

wet patio
#

so you're saying there's a chance

unborn hamlet
#

I COULD HAVE HAD 3LP SHACKLES AND AN IRE WITHIN THAT CHANCE

#

take your damn omnis and shove it up ur bum

#

gimme 3LP frozen ire

mainly because i couldnt get anything to drop to get my frostclaw build stronger to push higher

unborn hamlet

yea like, that 4LP laddle is really calling to me

#

strong

#

maybe next cycle

#

people might cook new builds too

wet patio
#

i have no one to play with so i didn't bother fighting the servers on release

unborn hamlet
#

fair enough

wet patio
#

i may play the next cycle online though

#

try the merchants guild possibly

unborn hamlet
#

i just play with random people that are looking for party, or solo, i just like having the option to play with others

wet patio
#

yea, i had ful intent to play online but the servers were so bad i just switched to offline and stayed there

i luckily had little to no issues

#

only when servers were totally down

What kind of chest leggo yall running?

i just triggered myself right before sleep

i checked the loottable for frost lich and Euology and Shackles have the same drop rate

#

i have over 10 of those stupid scythes

#

thats it, calling the EHG HQ tmr

#

someone there trolling me

#

at this point I am convinced this game hates me, I had a 75% chance to hit something useful and failed 5 times

rain island
#

For my mage I've decided that frost claw is better as my spammable rather than lightning blast. I couldn't kill Lagon with lightning blast but after switching it to frost claw I got him on the first attempt. The mana sustain was better as well.

unborn hamlet
#

well there are ways to make frostclaw become an infinite mana glitch

#

T7 reduced mana cost with the perk that has a chance to give u 12 mana

#

free cast, and chance to get +12 mana

neon lynx
#

u need all the perks that increase cost if u want ur claw to actually do damage tho

wet patio
#

i was able to sustain pretty reasonably with just slamming a -3 mana on my ire. frostclaw only is 4 mana at that point

full bluff
#

You can turn frost claw into a mana generator, 50 mana / sec

rain island
#

I have gift of winter node maxed out - I had frost claw spec'd but didn't have it on my bar as I was using it only for the proc but I think when I got hit. Now I need to decide if I want to unspec lightning blast or whether to keep it.

hmm, double t7 melee attack speed and ignite chance, any decent builds that want to scale those two together?

unborn hamlet
#

Some paladin build might

prisma patio
#

I'm sure you could cook up a SB that might want that

unborn hamlet
#

I don't think the flame reave cares about attack speed

prisma patio

Reave at least scales with attack speed, idk if you'd actually want to scale it that way or not

frozen sleet
full bluff
# frozen sleet That's interesting how's that work? I'm using mana strike to generate mana ATM b...

Made a fire sorc with frost claw as the mana generator, -mana cost on unqiue wand, -mana cost on boots, idols for frost claw mana cost reduction, gets the cost down to almost 0 at the extreme. The generated 22 mana per cast and high cast speed, makes it a pretty good generator. Not tried putting into a serious build, but there is potential there. Combine it with teleport free cast and it might enable meteor spam 🙂

#

There is also a unique scepter, that could make be useful

frozen sleet
#

Hmm I'll have to experiment with it I think it can also be made lightning ⚡ I'm not worri d about the damage but if it can be a ranged generator and it's on par with mana strike I could definitely make use of that!

Thanks for the heads up 👉😉👉

Is there some way to farm a the Level of Frost Claw affix?

I deleted my message I was looking at the wrong node. Does Reowyns Veil still need freeze rate multiplier if you turn frost claw into a lightning skill?

does int scale ignite?

regular fire/ele scale it too though right?

if u aint gonna use it with cold damage might as well

Do you guys know if Mana strike passive "Mana storm" mana cost counts as added to manastrike mana cost?

that's a lot of mana

mana indeed 😄

I think mana arc is counted as a secondary ability.

it is

seems like it, i was trying to get manastrike to proc blade weaver stacks.. but it doesnt work

i wonder if thats how it supposed to be 🤔

I imagine it is. Procs from skills rarely doubledip unless stated otherwise.

#

Does the Never Late runemaster passive affect the runic invocation that casts at the end of Flame Rush?

I assume it has to be a manual cast, but not entirely sure tbh.

so can heart only drop from emperor of corpses?

yeah and its super rare to get even 1LP on the heart

52% cast speed t7 wand : O

royal dock

meaning you have to farm bunch until it drop

this is my 4th

1st w/ LP

yeah im at like 8 no LP

royal dock

lost count how many time I gotta go after hiim

sometimes kick myself for not going MG

Can got to MG without losing rep but favor is gone until you grind again lol

#

from what I was told

#

I was debating to do it

coral lion
compact cloak
#

Is the build made for leveling?

safe grail
#

i just hate this because it basically makes frost claw builds not possible

coral lion
#

Yeah still on campaign atm

safe grail
#

until you get at least a T6 slam on a heart

coral lion
safe grail
#

not what i mean really.

I wanna play lightning nova spark charges

#

but it's VERY hard to play w/o a +3 claw slammed heart

coral lion
#

Oh you put elemental nova on claw as well? Nice

compact cloak
neon lynx

i thought about that

mourningfrost is a lot of dmg

nah

ur already getting

200+ flat from enigma

This filter..

If one item ruins your entire setup, is it even worth using it for now?

safe grail
neon lynx

plus now all the sudden u need ridiculous gear to play it

cuz u really need int slammed on all ur gear

#

and now u need int and dex slammed on everything lol

safe grail
#

yeah true

neon lynx
#

try the boots

#

u only need claw slammed on a heart for the mana efficiency node

safe grail
#

well i still gotta farm a drag's claw anyways

neon lynx

the flat -6 cost from boots ends up being more than that

#

plus +10 all stats is nice

Welp, no twisted but got 2lp on symbol of demise e.e

is anyone else having a problem with runemaster only giving 2 runes, not 3?

compact cloak
severe kelp
#

Specifically talking about the builds that spam only Reowyn's Frostguard, why do people take the Runic Energy passives at the bottom left of the tree? Frostugard is garbage in terms of damage

#

The nodes at the top right (cast 1rune/2rune/gap close) at least give something

neon lynx
#

apparently those nodes give it a chance to double cast it

#

meaning double ward from the passives i guess

#

idk i dont run it

severe kelp
#

Does it though

neon lynx
#

dunno, when i asked people why they run it thats what they said

severe kelp
#

If it stacks, not running Immutable Order (no cooldown) would give insane ward despite being troublesome to spam cold/fire/cold all the time

neon lynx
#

the actual ward from reowyns doesnt stack

#

the like +40 ward when casted and stuff stacks

shell orbit

Anyone know good build sites?

is cast speed important for offhand?

You can get a fair amount from teleport, and even more bulk when you combine it with flame ward

hot mason

I'm guessing that for the "Glamdring" node on frost claw it only applies to exactly "melee damage" and not like "elemental melee damage" or something

compact cloak

Read the description

so like if I have multiple sources of added melee damage will it deal multiple types of damage?

Then remove the unique that makes volcanic orb into void

either one or the other, but not half way lol

just dont use that unique then lol

Is there a viable build that actually uses invoked skills as primary dps?

pallid hedge

if not used - then delete lol - what I said remains valid at that point

neon lynx
#

just because u cant find a use for it doesnt mean no one can

pallid hedge
#

Im currently working a build with it, but just would be nice to have an extra unique that could offer just a bit more in terms of void conversion

neon lynx

they have an entire class that void conversion if thats ur jam

#

When?

pallid hedge
#

Or that too - that would be good too lol. I'm not picky

next lance
#

Hahaha. They shd follow what dota invoker did. Dont add rune order to permuations

3k before 1.0 was a lot easier than 2k would be since 1.0 for RM.

So far the only 1.0 2k corruption RM builds I've seen footage of are plasma orb builds in group play, with paladins providing buffs

Feel like I'm having a hard time in empowered with Hydra RM now. Guessing it caps out pretty quickly, because I'm finding it hard to scale.

If so, is it time to start collecting for Plasma?

neon lynx
#

plasma like tsp said has made it to 3k with supports

#

highest solo ive seen was 2200 from a rm

How high can you expect from Hydra? Because I'm even having trouble (admittedly with basic gear, but relic/chest uniques) at 150ish corr.

all that gold jsut for it to take double suffixes

I would say CoF on top, but honestly, until we get some perk buffs, cof is even more terrible

Just buy cheap 1lp hearts and +3 frostclaw fodder to slam

thats what I did

#

no need to but 2lp

frozen sleet

Certain monoliths have green/orange nodes and each monolith usually has set item type for what those nodes will be

Is 3lp rare? I got a 3lp shield earlier

Twisted heart target farm it just emperor dragon rng

#

Do it enough and eventually a 2 lp will appear

#

3 LP Close call is trash

#

3 LP Bastion of Honour is omega op

prime flare
#

Anyone know how Crest of Unity works?
It says it makes Elemental Nova always be Tri-elemental, but does that mean it makes it scale 33% from each of Fire, Cold and Lightning effects? I'm assuming something like Lightning penetration wouldn't apply 100% to it, only to the lightning "portion" right?

languid shoal
#

is emperor dragon in reign of dragons?

bronze shore
#

Yes

#

I advise you to push as far in the web

glacial hinge
#

Does the chest (Unstable Core) work if Nova is channled?

bronze shore
#

Then keep doing the highest stability node without killing orbyss

bronze shore
#

U might want to kill orbyss after 3 to 4 stack

turbid quail
#

will the "crit chance for you and your minons" affix on acolyte helm work for mage if I slam it into a unique?

neon lynx
#

no

bronze shore
#

So you will be pushing corruption + farming twisted heart

neon lynx
#

it makes it so it can only be worn by an acolyte

turbid quail
#

saved me from wasting an LP item 😆

neon lynx
#

just throw on the x crit chance, doubled with 300 mana instead

#

Thinking of making a tri elemental nova build that uses unstable core and crest of unity

just thought of how to test lol

turbid quail

#

If something makes a skill Tri elemental does that mean an item that says +1 to fire + lighting + 1 cold would give it +3?

Doesn't work with crest of unity, don't get your hopes up, but it works +3 for runic invocation tho

glacial hinge
#

ON the scales of eterra what do the infusions do?

prime flare
#

Anyone know how Runic Invocation decides what rune Elemental Nova is if you're using Crest of Unity?

In fact wtf is even going on with Immutable Order in the first place. It seems to swap the order depending on if you've got repeats of a spell on the bar? Despite it not being in the first 3 to decide the order

I have a crystal sword with 83%melee ele dmg and 9% ele attack speed with 153%cold dmg 23%attack speed 46% chance to shock 45% to chill on hit and 88% increase stun chance but when i swap it for my blade of sleet with 64& ele dmg and 39% ele attack speed with 41%melee speed 72%chance to chill
39%chance to shock 5 % crit chance my shatter strike loses almost 15k dmg why??

Can any one link the mana strike sorc build?

#

is there any way to set a filter to make a item glow on minimap like the uniques, set items?

valid flame
#

The elemental resistance suffix includes all resist?

#

Or does it only include fire/cold/lightning?

rocky anvil
#

There are "ALL resistances", but not as an affix/suffix, it's usually a unique item

unborn hamlet
#

also as far as i know, it uses the element u converted ur nova into

#

so if its converted to cold, it gives u a cold rune

rocky anvil
#

So what if you convert it to cold AND fire?

tawny orbit
#

I asked this yesterday and didn't get an answer does anyone know if the node Efficient Experiment in Runebolt works with runestones for runebolt?

prime flare
tawny orbit
#

Also if you make runebolt tri-element how does it work with runes you get from runic?

rocky anvil
unborn hamlet
#

I mean, just test it

#

The crest of unity should not matter

prime flare
unborn hamlet
#

Since it's an item effect

rocky anvil
#

I would suggest, but it is probably not the case, that the highest elemental type damage you deal decides what rune is generated from any tri-elemental skills, or skills that have multiple elements that don't explicitly says "unless you have element X rune" (runebolt and elemental nova are the only possible ones I think)

unborn hamlet
#

You know I was considering getting a shield for my RM, but the opulent offhand is just so powerful there is literally no option

#

I kind of hate that item

tawny orbit
unborn hamlet
#

I looked up all offhand uniques in the game and none of em even come remotely close to opulent(normal item)

#

I know they'll add more items later on, kinda wish there was a unique item you could slap implicits into as well

#

That would be cool

#

Same way that LP works, the item would also have to possibility to get 1 or 2 implicit slots

prime flare
#

Cuckoo?

tawny orbit
#

Atm I'm using a offhand I had drop which gives me +35 ward per second, not gonna be easy to replace that

rocky anvil
unborn hamlet
#

I mean, even if it does, what are the chances of getting suffixes/affixes that I need on it

#

Actually doesn't it just keep its own affixed

prime flare
#

It'll still be an Avian Puppet, so I think it'll retain its implicits (9-17 int, 9-34% haste effect, 1.7-2.9 sec of haste on traversal), but it should also keep its other stats, specifically the up to 290 ward decay threshhold

unborn hamlet
#

So you get 8 stats ?

#

And both item implicits?

#

Surely that's not how that works

rocky anvil
#

opulent is very good and only falls off at the extreme end game where you have 200+ int. But most people enjoy crystal skull over opulent

#

flat spell critical strike just is crazy good

unborn hamlet
#

I really need it for the ward gen/retention, without it my already bad ward gen in higher corruption makes it impossible to play

#

+ I have t7 cast speed on mine

rocky anvil
#

Get some ward based on life

unborn hamlet
#

I would have to throw out my bleeding heart for it

#

And shackles

#

Which would once again kill my entire ward gen

rocky anvil
#

It sounds to me like you should just spend a couple of days farming for gear

unborn hamlet
#

tell me something i dont know 😂

#

my items are not even T20, im just that unlucky getting them perfect in slot stuff i need

#

even with sealed affix its not T20

just look at it :sadge:

rocky anvil
#

Should consider the left ivory ring to be a rare instead of an exalted, because that T6 necrotic res is wasted

unborn hamlet
#

i know, ive been trying to replace it since it dropped

#

but if i replace it with a ring thats not ivory, my necro res just evaporates

#

i mean it wont matter at all if i get 3LP frozen ire slam, that will cover the whole necro res

#

i want basically a same ring, ideally t7 freeze or ele dmg over time, and get a poison/phys res instead of the necro one,

#

that would be the right side ring

#

but the right side one trolled me with 2 -18´s back to back on forging

rocky anvil
#

ah... oof

indigo isle
#

It takes mana strike almost a full second until I actually receive the mana - Is this a known bug? (I'm not lagging)

rocky anvil
#

The Ire is a PoS to get for me

#

an LP 1 after a full week

unborn hamlet
#

i have a nearly full stash of 2LP ones...

no 3LP so far

feb 21

#

i was late 2 days

rocky anvil
# indigo isle So, it is a bug?

I don't suppose you got the frost claw node that triggers on mana strike sometimes, that then also sometimes returns extra mana?

unborn hamlet
#

so feb 23, 6+9 is 15 days

#

i was at work for 2 days

13 days

Didn‘t ask

Maybe take a chill pill and re-roll merchant. What corruption are you on?

what is the best build for socr?

until they remake the entire merchant guild im not touching it

its the worst market system ive seen in any game with market system like ever

What are the good lightning builds? Could I get some links? Cheers (for runemaster)

i believe disintegrate, spark charge and plasma orb are all lightning based builds

spark charge being a melee build

Guys I have a question regarding skill passive interaction, that is I use lightning blast with arcane current right now, if I take supercharged flows passive which changes lightning blasts damage to cold will it stop using the lightning current as it will not count lightning blast as lightning skil?

rocky anvil
# indigo isle Nu uh, regular newbie spellblade

So, I look back at an old post here from oct 2020 that mentions they have a 0.5s delay, and it's working as intended. There's a built-in "use delay" of 0.2 seconds (All skills have some form of use delay). so the other person reporting a 0.5 delay of mana return would mean the "snappiness" should be 0.3 seconds. Which means you're either experiencing 300 MS latency or something else is afoot.

unborn hamlet
#

u can test it rather easily

#

if it does, good

#

if it doesnt, just respec 1 point

oak crest
#

Oy how much corruption are you on

unborn hamlet
#

youre clearly trying to pick a fight with me for no reason, im not gonna answer u

oak crest
#

Okay, so pretty low then

indigo isle
unborn hamlet
rocky anvil
#

I'm not sure, there's generating on cast and mana on return. Like it checks for enemies hit and such, and since a critical mana return node exists, perhaps it's checking all hits to see if there's crits before it returns the mana, even if you don't even have the node. I reached the extent of how much I know about mechanics and I can't pinpoint it for you

unborn hamlet
#

also if u play with someone from a different server, and u are playing on their server, u will experience delay cos ur not on your own server

rocky anvil
#

Ah there's also that, yeah

indigo isle
unborn hamlet
#

the game is running many calcs before it reaches the conclusion on what to actually give u back

#

i agree with TSP

indigo isle
#

And I'm playing alone

unborn hamlet
#

can u link your build perhaps?

#

maybe its caused by some item

indigo isle
#

Err... I'm only level 23

#

It's just a buch of random items

#

I can try unequipping and testing real quick

unborn hamlet
#

oh.. well i simply think your attack speed is not sufficient for what the skill is supposed to do in endgame content

#

at least i think

indigo isle
#

If I'll have more attack speed the delay will just be "worse"

unborn hamlet
#

if u dont have any uniques i dont think thats the case then

#

what build are u following?

#

if any?

indigo isle
#

None

unborn hamlet
#

it also might be related to class masteries

indigo isle
#

Class masteries>?

unborn hamlet
#

runemaster sorc spell blade

#

each give their own perk

indigo isle
#

Spellblade

#

I have a legacy runemaster I can try to check if the delay happens there

oak crest
unborn hamlet
#

seeing the tree there is many different nodes for the mana gen, if they all try to calc each other its probably just what TPS said, game being uncapable of making quick enough calculation of every perk without delay of mana return

oak crest
#

Is that you on your profile pic

#

Or what you‘d like to look like

indigo isle
#

I get that this might be the case but wouldn't this count as a bug nevertheless?

#

It's not some crazy-intense calculation. Generators are a basic function in the game

#

Would it be appropriate to ask the devs about this? o_o

unborn hamlet
#

we all know the game from performance perspective is not polished enough

indigo isle
#

Really? It actually runs much better on my PC than satanman's game

#

Or are you talking specifically about the backend

#

in which case of course I agree lol

Hey guys, whats the notable in the nova skill tree that auto casts?

or is that a thing for rune master only

or is it the frost claw that triggers it

oak crest
#

See

unborn hamlet
#

there might be an item that cats a nova when u get hit,but i dont remember

bitter ore
#

and flicker around casting nova

unborn hamlet
#

i mean u can still do that, just not automatically

#

there is a nova node that allows it to be cast in a location instead of around u

bitter ore
#

yeah I was hoping it be triggered so I wouldnt have to

#

thanks for the information though

#

trying to figure out a spellblade build that isnt absolute garbage

oh is that so?

Celestial Conflux in the Frost claw tree

oh yeah i see it now

fervent verge

is runebolt supposed to be that weak? i switched from fireball to runebolt and i hardly do any dmg now

pseudo trail
#

Is that actually worth it? currently doing spark mana strike

#

Well, still leveling it xD

#

only at 30 now

bitter ore
#

whats the attack speed on mana strike?

rocky anvil
# bitter ore oh yeah i see it now

Since you're a spellblade though, there's still concerns. For example, Mana strike is a melee attack, but the other two are spells, so those two won't scale off of +melee attack damage or melee elemental skills. This is very important to note because Spellblade's best base is a Crystal Sword... 😦

bitter ore
#

well the frost claw would only be to get nova to trigger for aoe

#

but that might not even be necessary if you can scale mana strikes attack speed

cerulean bone
#

anyone playing plasma orb? i need some advice for gear

bitter ore
#

i've only been farming monos on lock so I have no idea how spellblade works yet it just seems like something id want to try to figure out

pseudo trail
#

Im assuming the elemental nova takes from the points spend in it? could be interesting to do a combi manastrike/spark/frostclaw/nova

#

which is then all technically triggered from the mana strike

bitter ore
#

yeah it would just be flickering and triggering other spells

#

trigger FC to trigger nova

pseudo trail
#

might give that a try, sounds fun

unborn hamlet
#

im not playing it but the guide on maxroll for it is very decent from early game to Best in slot

#

issue with plasma orb is the potential ceiling being incredibly high, but also needs many uniques to shine, some of which are hard to get

cerulean bone
#

will check it , but cant do t2 jurla lol 😄 mostly the same gear

unborn hamlet
#

what level are u?

#
